(CNSNews.com) – Speaking on the Senate floor Tuesday, Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-Calif.) described how she was told by a guard to surrender her cell phone and that she could not take notes on the president's trade agreement when she went to read it.

“Let me tell you what you have to do to read this agreement. Follow this: You can only take a few of your staffers who happen to have a security clearance, because – God knows why – this is secure. This is classified. It’s nothing to do with defense,” said Boxer.

“It has nothing to do with going after ISIS. It has nothing to do with any of that, but it is classified,” she added.

“So I go down with my staff that I could get to go with me, and as soon as I get there, the guard says to me, ‘Hand over your electronics. OK. I give over my electronics. Then the guard says, ‘You can’t take notes.’ I said, ‘I cannot take notes?’” said Boxer.

I really think these morons thought they genuinely controlled him. They thought he was just like any other Black they look down on. It just goes to show you that they are totally blind to Islam. He IS a clueless idiot. But his handlers AREN’T.

When this all comes apart, and it will eventually, it’s going to be SPECTACULAR. Dangerous and deadly sure. But a complete E-ticket ride.

1. Generality - Laws shouldn’t be specially carved out to benefit one group or to attack or harm a narrow group of individuals.

2. Prospectivity - This is the constraint on ex post facto laws. Laws should always apply in the future and never to the past.

3. Publicity - Laws should be broadly published and well known, both to the representatives themselves and general public.

4. Consent - Laws must be generally acceptable to those who will live by them.

5. Proper due process - Due process means that the law is meted out equally and fairly with each similar crime being treated the same. Justice must be blind.

This bill violates at least 3 of the above.

She’s only pissed because she isn’t as big of a piggie as she thought she was.

If this deal goes through there is legitimate grounds for impeachment and removal and this treaty will be null and void.

It should set precedent to declare all secret treaties as well as secret courts, null and void.

This country does trials and legislation in the open.

Consent of the governed. If this is done the governed have a right - and probably a duty - to revolt against it.

I’m surprised Babs can write to even take notes.

Democrats eating their own.

Boxer has been around since the Civil War and has been in and out of that “room” a million times. She knows very good and well that (according to Krauthammer) ALL trade agreements are by their nature kept secret. That is why they have the “secret room” and senators have never been allowed into it with camera devices or to take notes. They are to read and study the material or evidence, whatever, but there are rules.

When Dems get mad they pretend this is all a revelation, something new and nefarious, something they have never heard of before, or experienced.

It’s a crock. Boxer knows it. But, if it sells, she will have done her job at the theater of it all.

There’s far to many laws period. Be nice if we elimintated 90% of them because the majority fall under your number 1.

Lawyers should be banned from any government position because they are the problem.

Congress should meet 2 - 3 weeks per year MAX to pass a budget and as required during a national crisis.. not a made up crisis.

people have all this love and respect for the military...my parents and brothers and brother in laws and my husband all served....but I’m telling you...they can be bought off and they will follow orders no matter how tyrannical...

Yes and it seems this Texas operation is practice and experimentation as to what it would take to turn the military against us.

Obama’s Trade Agreement and Treaty with IRAN simply allow Obama’s cronies to get the business contracts with Iran and then make contributions to the DNC 2016 Campaign!
